I hope people are doing chargebacks and asking for refunds for behavior like this. I get it, he's set now from getting bought out, but that doesn't mean people should leave their money is his hands. I can't imagine acting like that. I don't even know what he looks like but I can tell from his avatar he's a balding numale faggot that finally found a way to gloat.

If he thinks the biggest problem with EGS is that people have to install another launcher then he clearly doesn't have a need to know context and I don't see why anyone else should for what he says.

They should be apologizing for the hard bait&switch though

The thing is, if your game is not available for purchase on Steam, then I am not going to pay money for it.

They offer full refund for patreon supporters. And around 20 people refunded so far

Ask yourself if you've honestly heard of this piece of shit before he started shitting on his consumer base.

The game was shown at Microsoft's E3 conference.

ooblets seems like a garbage game so assuming someone wouldn't like it is just playing the odds

It died when the average person was able to express their opinion on the internet without someone smarter to filter their words first.

In this example, an indie dev who's been drinking the koolaid too hard and has a loudspeaker but no intelligence to use it properly.

There's a very good reason that engineers are not allowed to talk with customers directly in most companies.

Well, I'm now aware the game exists, looks like complete shit, and that the developers are raging cunts with a superiority complex. So that...works I guess?

Shit like this is why most big companies have dedicated PR people. Notable exception being Epi Games, that also has issues with it's CEO going on twitter and making an ass of himself and dragging the company's reputation down every time he opens his mouth.

holy hell,le climate change,human rights abuses.These motherfuckers are raging liberals who needs to tell people what to do.

and I will never buy it or any other game they ever make. Nicely done?

I know what gonorrhea is too, but that doesn’t mean I’d pay money to have it.

In this day and age it absolutely does work. It'll get them headlines on Kotaku or whatever, they can probably get a second article about the gamers harassing them and you fell for it hook line and sinker.

But that won’t actually do anything to help sell the game.

Yeah, it worked for Mechwarrior 5 when they announced their Epic exclusive deal, then had to go onto twitter not even hours later to beg people to stop refunding.

I'm glad I didn't support it on kickstarter, I'm pirating this shit now. It's ok tho, EGS already paid for it.

"No such thing as bad publicity" no longer applies in the Age of Communication. We live in a time where insane amounts of information can are available to you with a few button presses. Yes, people know Ooblts exists now but they also know it's a piece of shit that's not worth investing in.

What the fuck did you expect?
Reason why so many indiefags get mad at Steam is because they expect Valve to do free PR for them once they're in the store and get mad when nobody gives a fuck about their game and blame their failure on animetiddies and other shitty indiegames

>It'll get them headlines on Kotaku
Who actually reads Kotaku nowadays?

He's not making shit. His girlfriend is doing all the work and he's just the PR guy who apparently does writing for the game.

Imagine a game developer where the women do all the work while the men stir up shit and act like retards on twitter

Thus is the age of nu-males

Yeah and I'm way more aware what an idiot the dev is and don't expect anything worthwhile from that studio.
>hurr paid exclusivity is the same as console exclusive
There is a difference between a game that was produced by someone and someone just making a deal to sell a game (for a limited time) which was being made nonetheless

i saw it at E3 and yes, totally forgot about it
but it's just a schaudenfreude thing. we'll root out any retard dev being a retard just to laugh at the lolcow for a week
plus it's related to EGS which has been a lolcow for months now

You'd be surprised how little research people do. They'll read the headline "Oobits harassed by gamers" and then look up the EGS page and buy it.

Hahaha no

They’ll hear “Oobits”, search Steam, see the game isn’t available, and maybe drop it on the wishlist.

I would bet you money that the people actually using the EGS to purchase games could all fit in a city bus together.

750 000 copies of war world Z. Cope faggot

what game is this thread even about
why do 44 people care that much about it

It's like Pokemon but instead of Red and Blue it's Tumblr and Discord.

Of which I would wager about 750,000 copies were “guaranteed sales” from Tim’s exclusivity contract. It is a matter of public record that this is how the moneyhatting works; you agree to an EGS exclusive release, they literally buy a pre-agreed number of copies of your game.

Scummy practices in the industry, which does matter whether people like to admit it or not.

What's the game even about?
Why does anyone care about it? The dev looks like a massive asshole anyway.

Just pirate it, they already bought the game for you.

Even worse if I'm being honest.

Not even worth my time. There are gen3 Pokemon romhacks that are more worthwhile than this.

The people that would buy a game because of a kotaku article would've bought it anyway.

Name one.
please

>now
It's amazing how game devs don't think ahead a couple of months.

I don't think this guy understands the Epic deal, they're offering devs money because they think their games will attract users to their store. Even if they throw enough at you to completely cover the cost of this game it still needs to sell enough to justify your worth as a developeror or they won't be interested in your next game. So you'd need to fund it yourself and in turn "coddle angry gamers" to ensure it breaks even.

Tim Sweeney is. You agree to exclusivity and Epic just buys a bunch of copies of the game. That’s literally how the deal works.

Our lord and savior Tim buys all the games for us.

Most developers just want to make games, they don't actually care about the demands of fans, and I mean that in a very straightforward and (generally) non-malicious way. You have to think of it in terms of artist vs consumer, the one who buys and the one who creates. It'd be like ranting to a Burger King employee about shitty ketchup, and all he's paid to do is pretend to give a shit until you calm down and leave the store.

I don't doubt that indie developers aren't being given a life-changing sum, but I doubt they're being given enough money to set them up for life. If their isn't actually good enough to sell and get people on the EGS, their second game won't be getting similar treatments.

reading all of this and remembering that I tried to warn him when he started taking questions. First that trying to answer questions from shitloads of people at once on discord was a terrible forum and nobody is going to leave happy, and second that responding in such an overtly hostile way was going to bring more heat on them.

Let them enjoy their shitty 5 sales:

Attached: 1533431512065.png (683x534, 348K)

The sales ARE the exclusivity “money”. They guarantee minimum sales for exclusivity. If you sign the deal for 500,000 copies, say, then whether your game sells 8 ACTUAL copies or 499,999 ACTUAL copies, you “sold 500,000 copies”. That’s the money you generated.

It’s not immediately clear whether it works in exactly this way, or it’s more of a “bonus check” (i.e. sell 8 copies, and you “sold 500,008 copies”) and that may be something that is negotiated differently with different devs/publishers.

The key takeaway is that it’s not just a cash payout for exclusivity, it’s a promise of actual SALES, meaning what you report to your shareholders when discussing how the game performed (and it also lets Epic lie through their teeth about how games are performing on their store).

And who said anything about being owed anything braindead /pol/ack?

From how I understand it they buy a set number of copies they expected it could have sold if not exclusive up front to secure it for their store. As they are treated as sales of your game on the platform you end up with only the % you'd normally made from a normal sale.

The way the smaller devs word things there's some kind of a grant involved, but considering how educated they are in money I'm doubtful it's a grant and that's just Epic PR talk to suck them into the deal. They likely need to sell over the initial buy-in to begin making profits again and have to survive off the exclusivity money for a year after launch.

So in the case of these developers they're now living off presale money and need to seriously budget for the next 2 years because once it dries up it's gone. Releasing it won't let funds trickle back in for a while because of the exclusivity already covering the first load of sales. Sounds great if you're broke and can't afford basic essentials, but if you're in that situation and didn't budget well in the first place it's almost a death sentence on future aspirations. It sounds great for a bigger studio with proper budgets who can last out exclusivity and use the presales to fund their next project right away though.

>are these people genuinely autistic?
Naw just your average smug Seattle hipster

>When did PR die?
It didn't die. Everyone wants to be the next disney/netflix/marvel/ea and just tell your audience (when white males) that you hate them and how X product is not for them. If a product is a success, it's because minorities (ignore the fact that white males bought your product). If a product is a failure you blame white males for "not being ready" and make articles about the problems with the "fandom of ___".

Pretty sure it happened with the digital distribution of Darwinia, nearly 15 years ago. Possibly a few other titles? Though this was at a time where you could still buy physical copies of PC games, including Darwinia.

I know for me, I like shopping carts in steam sales because my cucked bank plan has a limited amount of transactions per month or else they charge extra

I give money to someone on Patreon but I get physical art out of it monthly. The problem is all these retards giving people money for nothing.

Devs literally posted they no longer need patreon bucks and they still have supporters, I wish I could get a cabal of morons to huff my farts that deeply.

What's with this argument that they're just two indie devs that are strapped for cash? First of all, they moved to one of the most expensive cities in the US to live in last month. Second of all, they have more than 1000 monthly patrons. Third of all, it's completely feasible that one of them could work on the game full time while another gets a part time job. And finally, dev teams of equal size or smaller have made much more impressive things with less dosh and support.

While all this is going on - they essentially decided to abandon the game and started the development of another one, which is the one the user posted. The funniest part is that
it's very likely that their new "game" wasn't even a game, at all, as they showcased precisely zero minutes of actual gameplay, so it's very likely that it'd been another pump and dump K$ cash-grab.

what was the original game called

Planetary annihilation

Jesus fuck, that brings back so many memories. All my friends in middle school wanted me to buy it and pressured me hard (they did the same shit with space engineers) but I didn't have enough to buy it ever. Did it end up being terrible?

Who is this "Yea Forums"?

The first version had a decent premise and ok core gameplay, which was nowhere near the level of Sup-com. I never bothered with Titans (the re-release), but I heard that they actually managed to fix some of the game's issues.

Name 1(One) single other industry where the creators/sellers of goods act so directly hostile to their consumer base.
It's not possible. It stands in defiance of even the most base theories of economics and marketing.

already is, literally 90% of people in the discussions of this game right now never heard of it till now
no fuckin way anyone walks away with a good impression of these fucks now

Well there's Dick's Last Resort but that is more of a gimmick

>implying normalfags give a single fuck
Try to remember the target demographic of the EGS

film

the people brigading their chats and forums aren't their consumer base though, they're just coming in to shitpost for a game they hadn't even heard of before yesterday

You're not wrong, their core base doesn't seem to give a shit regarding it considering their Patreon

findom

>people with complaints about our game being egs after we told people it would be steam don't have arguments
fuck yourself you faggot game developer. you people are shit thats why no one at a decent company would hire you and you had to beg for money like a nigger on the side of the road. Get fucked.

Update, in the last 12 hours Ooblets lost 2 supporters on patreon.

Baseline number 1159
Current number 1109
Overall lost of supporters 4,4%.

We are clearly winning bros

It was never really about winning or losing. If anything, it was about the drama.

WOOOW WHAT A BIG NUMBA

A lot of people take this shit seriously and they think bitching about it is going to make a difference. I'm just here to laught at these people

They all want to be the next Miyazaki, bbut deep down they know that even their hatred for their own audience will always be shallow and mediocre

I don't think anybody seriously expect their basedtrons to stop. It does however poison the well for when they release to the general audience.

Well, the dev clearly said he doesn't give a fuck about the patreon, most likely those who will remain will be childs who had access to their mom credit cards

Miyazaki hates out of love, if that makes any sense. His hatred has SOUL

To be fair otaku culture ruins alot of animes. I sware to fucking god if i have to watch one more fucking beta faggot self insert character act like a fucking autistic nigger when women are literally grabbing his cock and ass i'll fucking neck someone.

this has to be an edit I don't believe this is genuine

that's not really otaku culture

Exactly, which is why they know that they'll never be him

>When did PR die?

with indie games becoming increasingly popular you have very small operations consisting of less than four people cropping up and having to juggle multiple aspects of managing a business resulting with people in the teams that have no idea how to do good pr being thrust into PR roles

A slightly addendum, the game was Early Access trash and in no way even close to a 1.0 release. However the devs got bored and wanted to work on a new game so they took the existing game, slapped a 1.0 "final" tag on it, dumped the game and launched another Kickstarter for their next game. They were asking for $1.4 million despite having raised like $2.4 million during their original kickstarter plus whatever profits they made from Steam sale.

The original dump-and-run of the original game pissed off all the original backers who vowed never to associate with Uber Entertainment agian. The original kickstarter had ran for nearly a month year only raised a measly 27% of its target, and rather than face the shame of letting it run the full 30 days and end in fail Uber cancelled the Kickstarter and reluctantly went back to work on Planetary Annihilation, releasing a paid DLC that was mediocre as fuck

Are you posting from 2010?

because one of the biggest fucking problems of the egs not having a shopping cart is having your account locked out during a sale when you would be purchasing alot and having to contact support after 3 or so transactions.

which is a huge fucking mistake because your supposed to have as few distractions or roadblocks in completing transactions because you don't want to give purchasers any time to reconsider their purchase because it could be your fucking game they pass on.

Wonder how many people actually bought the game instead of activating a cd key from amd gpu purchases. Have a copy myself from buying a cheap RX570.

There was that one guy which was blocked from buying games for 10 minutes before they lifted it. I'm unable to understand why people use it as an argument. Small fuck ups like this are happening all the time, you can even get blocked on steam in the same way. 3 days ago valve destroyed the whole TF2 economy. But let's ignore that, a single guy got fucking blocked for a few minutes. NEW ARGUMENT AGAINST CHINA OVERLORDS

Personally, as someone who'd never heard of this product before, I'd probably have seen it spreading around if it got popular and checked it out to see what the hype was about. Which is exactly what I've done now, except rather than it being because most of the people who were invested are saying "wow this game is really good" it's because they're saying "wow fuck these devs".

I'm unable to understand the argument against having a shopping cart in your digital storefront in this day and age.

this but unironically. tumblr has been dead ever since the porn ban, they all moved to twitter. stop using its corpse as a bogeyman

yikes

Mostly when the deplorable customers got tired of crowdfunding disappointments like Mighty No. 9 and vaporware like Psychonauts 2.

It's going to be hilarious to watch EGS crash and burn when they run out of Other Peoples' Money, as all systems that take control of the means of production from the deplorable customers and give it to the workers inevitably must.

It gets brought up because it was a direct result of not having a basic standard feature in a store that is supposedly "bringing competition" to steam.

I'm not fucking sure in what school of economy you belive in. But you are one of the biggest retards on the entire world.
Epic as much as you may hate isn't in any fucking way related to socialism or communism

Even normal fags know epic is complete shit.

Hey sweetie, people who are genuinely good don't ask for anything in exchange for their acts
If they do, they aren't good people

I don't know nor do I really care if we are gonna be honest here.

>People who are good at their jobs work for free!
Uhm.. honey..?

Valve also fixed the TF2 economy shortly after yet it's ok to dismiss a laundry list of problems just because people collectively hate the intention behind it. Whataboutism doesn't help make Epic look better, since people still get hacked, doesn't help the end customer just dev/publisher, and the fact that everyone still collectively shits on it for those reasons and many more is why this "Paint Steam as greedy kikes" narrative is a joke

imaging giving someone money for a product years in advance and you dont even know what the product will be.

I mean, have you seen any of its media? Just check out the website I guess.

Many people didn't know this game exists until they see the dev being massive cunts.

Imagine taking money years in advance for a product then changing what your promised and not giving refunds, then calling your customers entitled

Yo, Perplamp, just so we're clear here if you're still in the thread: You didn't piss off the angry Yea Forums virgins. We didn't care before, and now we're laughing at you because you started a shitstorm and seem as if you deserve it. The people you pissed off were your fans who supported you. Never forget that.

...and now we're here. After ruining your golden goose, you should have known this was going to happen. You failed to push out updates, you failed to fix the issues that you kept making, and you left the home systems to rot while the PC version updated at a snails pace.

Then you make money grubbing choice after money grubbing choice, and now you have the aducity to plead not guilty? Get fucked.

It's easy to say that if Epic gives you a buncha money instead of your customers.

If people want to not support Epic games and especially don’t want to support Game devs that put out really bad responses like these guys did, why still insist that “I’m gonna pirate it”

Isn’t it more principled to just not get the game, period? Just spread the word of their assholery and ignore the game.

Wish there were a similar game out there that wasn't a dotaclone. I enjoyed the TPS aspects mixed with the level designs being vertical.
